-Author Commentary-

Maybe the issue I feel the least strongly about. I quite like most of the articles in here, but really the only one I think is worth commenting on is Swords of Destiny, since it represents a fairly fundamental shift in the way I approach "bad games" caused directly by me starting to write these. Shame Corners 1-4 were all games I'd already played a while ago and didn't like, but this was one I'd played a tiny handful of and then dropped fairly recently. Unlike those others, I ended up coming back to it and playing more, specifically because I wanted to write about it for the Monthly Silly. I like this, I'm much more willing to take chances on games I know might be bad now compared to before. Best case scenario, I end up with a new unlikely favourite, and worst case - hey, the game itself might not have been fun, but I'll enjoy writing the Shame Corner review for it.
